Sweet Love I Desire - Poem by Colin Coplin

I’ll never tire, of loving youYou set me on fire, with things that you doSweet love I desire

Like a moth to a candle, or phoenix from the flamesLove grows stronger, with each passing dayThe nights that we lay resting in each others armsRe-ignites the forge and the fire, of sweet love I desire

I’ll never tire, of loving youYou set me on fire, with things that you doSweet love I desire

I went up to the mountain, wounded and afraidYour smile held me breathless, as I stood by your flameThe words that we carved on the rocks in the sunNow lie as pieces to a puzzle, to sweet love I desire

I’ll never tire, of loving youYou set me on fire, with things that you doSweet love I desire

Love is an ocean, the waves are it’s moodsEver changing motion, that keeps us amused I lie on a raft, looking up at the starsLike Ulysses I chart a course, back to your love

I’ll never tire, of loving youYou set me on fire, with things that you doSweet love I desire

I stand here naked in the garden with youTime has no meaning, it’s something we doYou led me down to pick fruit from the treeGiving new meaning to all that I see

I’ll never tire, of loving youYou set me on fire, with things that you doSweet love I desire
